Several U.S. states · 1974–1978
Ted Bundy abducted and murdered young women across several states during the 1970s, sometimes pretending to need help to approach them. After escaping custody, he attacked women in Florida. His trials, survivors’ accounts, and the investigation became the subjects of books and screen adaptations.

Map sources checked September 14, 2026. 11 individual Odd Stops location pages matched this case.
MAP mentions Bundy in William Hagmaier’s biography and its No Man of God film connection; this is not a county-cluster case match.
“No verified match” describes the accessible material found in this review, not proof that a source has never covered the case. MAP’s anonymous records were not individually matched to people.

Use these outside resources alongside the case library. Each answers a different question about a place.
Patterns · U.S. homicide data
The county dashboard groups homicides to help researchers examine geographic patterns and reported clearance rates. Similarities can suggest questions for investigators; they do not prove that cases share a perpetrator.
Our case notes link to MAP’s own discussions of Gary Ridgway, JonBenét Ramsey and Samuel Little.

Independent map essay · worldwide
Theresa H Ye’s January 2021 ArcGIS StoryMap presents an international tour and a section on Samuel Little’s geography. It includes U.S. profiles of Gacy, Dahmer and Bundy.
An independent presentation hosted on ArcGIS, not an official police map. Its biographical claims and victim figures need separate verification; use it as supplementary reading.
Read the StoryMap ↗Community discussion · worldwide
A January 2023 r/MapPorn post shares a map described by its poster as based on Wikipedia. The discussion raises concerns about missing people and misplaced markers, including birthplaces versus crime locations.
We have not adopted its coordinates or victim counts. Its “all known” title is the poster’s claim, not a verified statement of complete coverage.

EVERY CASE CHECKED · SEPTEMBER 14, 2026
All 170 cases received individual name searches on Odd Stops and MurderData. We opened matching location pages and reviewed the supplied ArcGIS essay and Reddit discussion.
A source can mention a person without documenting a location. One additional Odd Stops case and Ted Bundy’s MAP result are mentions only. Two candidate location pages were inaccessible and remain unverified. “No verified match” means none was found in the accessible material searched; it does not establish absence from an entire archive.
For each cataloged case, searches used the case name and relevant names or aliases. We also inspected accessible Odd Stops index pages and MAP’s available blog feed. Each included location page was opened to check its connection, and the address or area was labeled as historical, biographical, a recovery site, or another specific connection.
MAP’s three direct case discussions concern Ridgway, JonBenét Ramsey, and Samuel Little. Bundy appears in a board member’s biography. We did not match people to anonymous homicide rows or treat a county cluster as proof of a shared perpetrator. The 2021 ArcGIS essay includes four cataloged cases; the Reddit map’s coordinates and counts were not imported.
This is a review of the four linked map resources, not a fresh verification of every court record, media item, or present-day property condition in the case library. Photographs require separate reuse permission, and visitor access requires current venue information.
